Conference Centers/Active Members - Meeting facilities that satisfy the Universal Criteria.
Learn more about this category.Every application for Active membership undergoes an extensive review to ensure full compliance with the Universal Criteria. The review takes place at a number of levels within IACC; it typically includes a site inspection and ultimately must garner the approval of the Board of Directors. Often, six months or more may elapse between the prospect's submission of an application and the formal acceptance of a facility's membership. So, we offer the following schedule as a guide to timing an application:
| Completed application to IACC | Earliest likely Board consideration |
|---|
| January 15 | Summer (mid-June, same year) | | April 15 | Fall (mid-September, same year) | | July 15 | Winter (mid January, next year) | | September 15 | Spring (late March or early April, next year) | |
IACC will not begin the review process until an application is complete, and a complete application comprises four items: - Application form.
- Quality Assurance Checklist.
- Full payment of first-year's dues and initiation fees.
- 30 Copies of supporting collateral.
Collateral must include at least a floor plan of all meeting rooms. In addition, you may wish to provide other marketing literature that demonstrates the facility's compliance with IACC criteria.
Suppliers/Affinity Partners - Vendors that provide products & services to conference centers.

Please note: You can save any Adobe Acrobat document to your computer by clicking the "diskette" icon or by printing it to a file. In the case of the Student/Faculty application, we have formatted the document so you can fill it out on screen by using the "Tab" key, or you can print the form directly to paper. In any case, you will ultimately need to sign and return a printed version of the form to IACC (see instructions at bottom of the form).
